Oscar winner Brie Larson ("Room", "Captain Marvel") is set to star in an upcoming creature horror film called "Fail Safe", which will be directed by JT Mollner ("Strange Darling") and produced by J.J. Abrams ("Lost", "Star Trek"). The script is penned by Brian Duffield ("No One Will Save You") based on a short story by Philip Fracassi.
The film has been described as a modern take on the creature horror film told from the perspective of a young boy who slowly begins to discover that his beloved parents are hiding a disturbing secret about his mother's true nature.
Abrams said: "With Fail-Safe, Brian Duffield has written an absolute powerhouse of a script. It's a horror film that is as sweet and moving as it is terrifying. To have JT Mollner in the director's chair — his Strange Darling blew me away — is a dream come true. Finally, having the limitlessly talented Brie Larson as our star sets up Fail-Safe to be that rare horror film that makes you laugh, feel, and care, before taking you on an absolutely wild ride."
The film is produced by FilmNation Entertainment's Infrared, J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot Productions, and Assemble Media. Drew Simon, J.J. Abrams, Jon Cohen, and Jack Heller are producers. Assemble's Caitlin de Lisser-Ellen and Brian Duffield are executive-producing alongside Larson and Fracassi. Infrared is financing. Arrival, Conclave and Anora outfit FilmNation is handling international sales and will represent domestic rights with CAA Media Finance and WME Independent.
